Bell Middle School Sixth-Graders Held "Ted Talks" on Important Issues

Posted on 02/28/2018

As part of an informative PBL, Krista Ingro and Akacia Pennington's sixth-grade language arts classes at Bell Middle School conducted research on an important issue they were passionate about. Working in groups, they looked at their problem through activists' eyes and researched not only information and facts but also evidence that would support their potential solutions, as well. As a culminating activity, students gave "Ted Talks" to an audience of peers, parents, and school personnel. Bell couldn't be more proud of their sixth-graders! Stay tuned for a follow-up on some of their groups who are putting their plans in motion and becoming true activists! Check out a video of the Ted Talks here.
